The original HEXBEAM was developed by Mike Traffic, N1HXA, in the early
nineties. It is true that an M over W configured yagi antenna that
resembled a butterfly was earlier tried successfully. But the advanced
electrical design, the characteristic nesting concept and central terminal
post that enable the multi band functionality along with the basic hardware
design were all developed by Mike Traffie.
